Set up your account

To use the PayPal Express Checkout, you need to sign up for a new account with PayPal. If you don't have a PayPal account with the email address you used to set up your store, then you can add your email address to your existing PayPal account.

When you set up a new PayPal account you need to verify your business information, and complete the Know Your Customer (KYC) procedure. If you have any questions about creating your account, then contact PayPal Customer Support.

If you want to issue refunds or manually capture payments using PayPal, then you need to give Shopify permissions from your PayPal account.

For security, only the store owner can edit your store's PayPal Express information.

Steps:

  1. From your Shopify admin, go to Settings > Payments.

  2. In the PayPal section, select your PayPal account type.

  3. Click Activate.

  4. Enter the email address for your PayPal account, then click Next.

  5. Enter the password for your PayPal account, then click Log In.

  6. On the PayPal permissions page, click I Give Permission.

  7. On the PayPal confirmation page, click Go back to Shopify.

  8. Make a test transaction to make sure everything is set up properly.
